The villagers gathered in groups of three or four, either at the entrance of the village or at the doorsteps of their homes. The atmosphere was extremely tense. If you didn't know, you would think something big had happened in the village.

In fact, it is indeed a big deal.

An old man with a white beard sighed, "Alas, it's a retribution. No wonder he always comes to blackmail us. Don't we owe him something?"

Yes, those grains were exchanged for Su Cheng’s jade pendant, and the villagers owed Su Cheng a favor.

Did Su Cheng really extort a lot of money over the years? No.

He only extorted a few copper coins. How much food did they eat that year? Speaking of food, another infuriating thing came up.

"I just asked Yu Niang. The old Su family sold for one thousand taels that year, but they spent less than a hundred taels on buying food for us! They have a lot of money in their hands, but they eat bran and vegetables in front of the villagers all day long, looking like they can barely make ends meet! Who are they doing this for?"

"that is!"

"If they don't lie like this, how can the village give them the land?"

"You're one thing in front of people, and another behind their backs! I was so blind at the time! I didn't realize you were such a shameless bunch!"

"By the way, how come Su Cheng has such a valuable jade pendant?"

"He was stranded in Yangliu Village... Could it be that he is actually the child of a wealthy family?"

"Come on, Aunt Wu, which child from a wealthy family isn't spoiled? Su Cheng is a cowherd boy, he's just lucky, I guess he was picked up from somewhere!"

"Whatever he picked up is his too! It's wrong for the Su family to steal his jade pendant!"

Wei Ting had heard almost everything along the way.

His expression was still very cold, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed a little more irritable than usual.

When he entered the room, the three little ones were sitting on the doorstep, drinking milk from the bottles in both hands.

Behind the three people was a main room with several oil lamps lit.

Su Ergou set up the table and chairs, ready to eat.

Looking through the main room, I saw Su Cheng chopping and bundling firewood in the backyard.

Later, Su Xiaoxiao was busy in the kitchen.

Four words flashed through his mind: worldly affairs.

In the village, folks were cursing one after another, but no one from Xiao Su's family, the original owner of the incident, mentioned the incident at all.

Everyone worked hard to ensure that Su Xiaoxiao's hard work would not go to waste.

The world is big, but rice is the biggest! Su Xiaoxiao made Tomahawk Pork Belly tonight. Each rib is full of meat, fat and lean, and covered with braised sauce. When you take a bite, the salty, sweet and fragrant sauce mixed with the tender meat juice bursts in your mouth, which is simply heavenly.

The three little ones also got three small battle axes, which they chewed until their little mouths were filled with grease.

Wei Ting has a light taste and never eats greasy food.

Su Xiaoxiao left the thinnest piece for him.

He shaved off the thin layer of fat on top.

Then he put the ribs with only the lean meat left back into Su Xiaoxiao's bowl.

Su Xiaoxiao gave him a strange look.

Wei Ting ate the fat in the bowl with a cold expression.

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it, stood up and picked up a piece of pure fat meat and gave it to him.

Wei Ting: “…”

After dinner, Su Xiaoxiao went to clean the kitchen and prepare the ingredients for making snacks tomorrow morning.

Su Yu Niang came in carrying a pot of wine: "You really can't sit still."

Su Xiaoxiao sniffed: "Wine?"

Su Yu Niang shook the wine pot in her hand: "Ha."

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously: "Su Yu Niang, you don't want to feed the child anymore?"

Su Yu Niang smiled charmingly and found a bench to sit down: "I've already told Sister Zhao that she will help feed him for a few days."

Su Yu Niang is really capable. In the past, because of the incident of snatching the midwife, the Li family hated the entire Su family. Now, she has used the gold to smooth over the relationship with the Li family, leaving the old Su family hated to death by the Li family.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "You are really a hands-off boss."

Su Yu Niang snorted, "I can't compare to you. Since you got little Wu, I think you have more and more free time."

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled: "Who just said that I can't be idle?"

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at her: "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

Su Yu Niang said, "Just asking."

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it seriously: "Make money, let my father and my brother live a good life, carry forward Su Ji, and let Ergou sell pancakes happily every day."

They also have three children, so they no longer have to live in hiding.

If possible, she would also like to travel around and see the beautiful scenery of the Great Zhou.

In her previous life, she only studied and worked. She spent almost her entire short life in school and the army. She had no chance to go out and see the wonderful world outside.

In this life, she wants to change the way she lives.

"What about you? What are your plans?" she asked Su Yu Niang.

She didn’t have many friends in her previous life. Firstly, she was not used to getting along with others, and secondly…she only now realized that there might be something wrong with her personality in her previous life.

But perhaps because she had died once, or perhaps because of the fusion of this body's heart memory and instincts, her temperament had changed somewhat compared to her previous life.

The obvious result is that she has friends.

"As for me." Su Yu Niang took a sip of wine and was slightly drunk. "I want to take Nannan away from here, to a place where no one knows me, and start over."

"Have you decided where to go?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Su Yu Niang shook her head.

She glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "You've really lost a lot of weight... Do you want to have a sip? What? You don't dare to drink? You're a little bully in Xinghua Village, but you don't even dare to drink a sip of wine? You're just living up to your reputation!"

This little rich woman even used the method of provoking others?

Isn't it just a sip of wine?

Is that so? In her previous life, she had a very good alcohol tolerance. No one in the army could drink more than her. Privately, she had a nickname: "A thousand cups without getting drunk, ten thousand cups without falling down!" However, Su Xiaoxiao ignored the weak instinct of this body.

One mouthful, two mouthfuls--

Duang!

She fell!

Su Yu Niang: “???”

Su Yu Niang was sobered up by the shock! This girl...did she fall down with a bang...

Su Yu Niang quickly squatted down to feel her breath: "Daya! Daya!"

Su Xiaoxiao said vaguely: "Yu Niang, let me tell you a secret... Wei Ting and I... are a fake couple..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Ting walked over with his long legs.

He bent down and picked up a drunk little fat peacock, his movements natural and skillful.

Su Xiaoxiao also hugged his neck, buried her little head in his chest, and found a comfortable position.

Perhaps drinking was too uncomfortable, she frowned irritably.

Wei Ting lowered his head and gently touched her slightly hot forehead with his delicate chin.

An unintentional action conveys silent comfort.

Su Xiaoxiao really calmed down and fell asleep in his arms without any defense.

Su Yu Niang: You call this a fake couple? I don't believe you!

"I'll take Daya back to the house first."

After saying hello to Su Yu Niang, Wei Ting carried the unconscious drunk little girl back to the east room.

Su Yu Niang looked at the two people's backs as they left, a hint of envy flashing across her eyes.

She was afraid that she would never meet a man who was truly devoted to her in her life.

"woman."

Yuchi Xiu appeared behind her like a ghost and said sinisterly, "Give me back my pants."

There will be another one later
